Egg Tumbler - How do they work?

[dark_stranger]

as the title says, how do they work? do they have to be feed from a main tank to prevent the water going off, do you keep them in a main tank, etc

Cheers

to address your Q? specifcially, they can be attached, but do not have to be.
Egg tumblers come in all shapes and sizes and can be as simple as a bubbling airstone to as complex as you want them to be, and yes some also tap off a main line and spill back into a main resevior. The idea is to keep the eggs suspended in the water column, and w/ all that water movement comes good oxygen and waste/nutrient diffusion
